Callum McLachlan, finalist of the 18th Schumann Competition Zwickau and semi-finalist at both the Leeds and Santander International Piano Competitions, has been described as “a born Schumann player” with “a magical sense of colour and extraordinary technical prowess.” His performances at the Leeds were broadcast live on BBC Radio 3 and Medici.tv, viewed by thousands worldwide. The Leeds described him as “continuing to captivate audiences with his profound musicality and virtuosic performances.”
Following his success there, he was the only British pianist selected for the 17th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. Gramophone magazine praised him for “the warmth and body of his gorgeous sonority,” with his first-round described as “luminescent, clear, virtuosic, and balanced.” He currently studies with Professor Kirill Gerstein at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin.
He has recently made major debuts at Yamaha Hall (Tokyo), Klavier-Festival Ruhr, Menton International Music Festival, Mallorca Piano Festival, Lake District Summer Music, Wasserburg Klavier Sommer, Allerheiligen Hofkirche Munich and Van Cliburn Concert Hall (Fort Worth). Last season he made his debut with Staatsphilharmonie Nürnberg and John Fiore, performed the Swiss premiere of Eric Tanguys Piano Quartet for Classeek, and was invited for Solo Recitlas at Verdi Hall Milan and Bechstein Hall London.
He has performed at many of the most important concert venues throughout the UK, Europe, and USA, including Laeiszhalle Hamburg, Wien Konzerthaus, Pereda Hall Santander, London's Steinway Hall and Manchester's Bridgewater and Stoller Hall. An active chamber musician, he has performed with the renowned ensemble Casals Quartet, Kaleidoscope Ensemble and maintains a regular duo with Queen Elisabeth laureate cellist Jeremias Fliedl.
